IceWEB Sells 300-User IceBOX BYOD Implementation to Medical University in Midwest [Health & Beauty Close - Up](Health & Beauty Close - Up Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) IceWEB, Inc., a Unified Data Storage appliance provider for cloud and virtual environments, as well as the highly secure, scalable IceBOX BYOD Private Digital Cloud Solution announced that it has completed a sale of its flagship IceBOX "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) cloud collaboration platform to a Medical University in the Midwest, making an entry into the healthcare industry. In a release, the Company said that it is providing a complete IceBOX on-premise solution so that its customers can manage up to 1,000 users while also meeting the strict Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) data storage requirements which prevents most health care facilities from benefiting from the BYOD capabilities of the Cloud. "We solved a very difficult problem that health care organizations and universities have to deal with--they require a BYOD private cloud collaboration solution that conforms to the stringent HIPPA regulations which require their data to reside inside HIPAA Compliant Data Centers. Our IceBOX enterprise version on-premise appliance and application meets this requirement," said Rob Howe, CEO of IceWEB. "IceBOX exceeded both sets of this customer's requirements, providing a win-win for the university and its end-users. Additionally, we provided our IceWEB 2000 Unified Storage platform running our patent-pending IceSTORM Operating System as an additional component for storage in their data center. This is just another example of how our Complete Cloud Services initiative continues to gain traction as the right strategy at the right time," Howe said.
